Octopus pâté

Octopus pâté. A gourmet appetiser made with Galician octopus, caught sustainably and prepared by hand at a small family-run cannery in Cambados in the heart of the Rías Baixas. The cannery is close to the key fishing ports and the founder maintains close relationships with the local fishermen, ensuring that the octopus is sourced at its optimal freshness from the morning lonja or fish auction.

Recipe tip: serve the pâté chilled or at room temperature on toast, rye bread or crackers, or use it as a filling for pimientos del piquillo or small roasted peppers.

It must be fished seasonally, sustainably, and must be prepared by hand. This is the Carmelo manifesto.
